and then at Fukushima
----------------------------------------http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asi...failing-to-take-hold.html But here in the UK we blow up our conventional Power Stations because they produce CO2 and are building the "Clean, Safe and Carbon Neutral" Nuclear Version by guaranteeing the providers of these monstrosities twice the rate for the electricity they produce as we had to pay for the convention power station we just blew up while paying out billion after billion to tidy up the mess from the previous batch. For example... http://www.magnoxsites.co.uk/wp-content/uploa...e-20080-Lifetime-Plan.pdf They produce Electricity for 40 years take 120 years to decommission and leave behind a radioactive legacy we just move behind these gates  But there's no stopping this [Edit 3 times, last edit by David Autumns at Aug 2, 2014 10:54:41 AM] |

The July 2014 result is in and the average temperature from 2438 NOAA Weather Stations around the Globe was 22.085C - the coldest July in the temperature series so far
---------------------------------------- The average temperature August 2013 through to the end of July 2014 was 12.297C Down 31/1000ths of a degree compared with the year to the end of June 2014  Here's another forum friendly sized graph that updates hourly  The graphs above are (at this moment in time) the result of 78,487,615 individual temperature measurements taken around the Globe from (the same set of) NOAA Weather Stations since the beginning of 2011  If this 0.04% CO2 is causing a catastrophic runaway warming of our Planet as foretold ... NOAA's thermometers are not registering it. Dave |
